Looks like you do not need web services or jms. You could use the 'default' configuration from the binary zip file and * remove the server/default/deploy/jms directory * remove the server/default/deploy/jbossws.sar directory Because the web console if fairly useless, you can also remove server/default/deploy/management Caveat: it has been a while since I have done this kind of stripping down of the default configuration so there might be a few gotchas that I do not remember. IF you are using the installer jar file, select the default configuration and on the list of service remove the ones you do not want. If you do not know what a particular service does, keep it. (Yes I know this suggestion is more vague but I almost never use the installer jar file.) View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4119130#...
